Make Money Online Search Results Update

Here is an updated on the results of my Make Money Online anchor text test. As you know, I have been trying to get on page one of Google for the search term “make money online.” I’m happy to report that as of today, I am now ranked number two for that term across every single Google server.

Even before locking the number two spot, being on page one offers some nice benefits. In my first update, I showed that make money online was the number two most used keywords to find this blog.

The above chart shows the keywords used to find this blog for the week of March 22 to 28. As you can see, make money online have taken over the number one spot from my name. Ranking for that term has also ranked me for “making money online” and “making money.” Together, all three key terms have sent me 746 visitors in one week. This number should increase as my number two spot on Google’s SERP takes hold. I believe ranking for this keyword will be worth at least 4,000 new visitors every month.

According to my Google AdWords control panel you would need to bid $1.75 to $2.62 per click in order to get into the top three sponsored ads spot of the Google SERP page for the term make money online. By getting on the organic results for free, I am saving some serious money. Even if I were paying for AdWords, I would not get the same level of traffic as being in the organic results since only 12% of Google users click the sponsored ads.

Now that I locked the make money online keyword, I’m going after make money on the Internet. I am currently at the top of page three for that term. It shouldn’t be too long before I hit page one. According to the Overture Keyword selector Tool, there were over 20,000 searches last month for make money on the Internet. Free feel to link to me with that term. 🙂

Someone would a sharp eye may noticed that 49 people came to my blog last week looking for “whores.” Thanks for visiting, but the only whores you’re going to find here are Google whores (and comment whores).

Yes, those terms are useless, I said so before listing them…and no having a bunch of little terms does not add up to the big terms unless you have thousands of them. Trust me, we are ranked for a lot of other useless terms to, I just gave those as an example because I was asked.

A hosting company that has $2 clients is setting itself up for failure.

Go John, Go John, GO GO Go John. That is great news. Isn’t it amazing what you can achieve with so many people admiring you. Like I said earlier, I am shooting for “Hopeless Romantic” that should be fairly easy if I do enough articles and get some anchor text link back. Awesome Job keep up the greatness. You Evil Evil man!

It’s nice to be transparent, John, but don’t you consider this very suspicious and a way to game the search engines? I actually blogged about it a little while ago.

I’m not sure many people are finding much relevancy in “make money online” from your blog. You tell others how YOU made money, but unless they had the same link juice as you, it does nothing for new folks and would have them running in circles. If anyone’s making money online, it’s the companies you’re promoting, particularly 1234pens.com with the contest you’re holding. I’m not sure why folks would want you to review their service either; a lot of people are truthfully getting overwhelmed by those paid reviews, myself included.

I could be in the minority here, and it seems that you have a very big community of stauch supporters, but I even question that…

Don’t get me wrong, John. I subscribe to your blog and have been reading for a good amount of time. But even you admit to being “evil” and I think the money is getting to your head.

I guess it’s just the way I see it. Would you watch a 6 minute TV show in a 30 minute time slot knowing that the other 24 minutes were commercials? Probably not.

John’s got the audience and he’s smart. The problem is leveraging that audience and keeping them interested. Right now, that audience includes individuals like you and me, who find value in those “golden” posts, and also individuals who are interested in investing in him financially. It is his responsibility to take a vested interest in both sides. I would say, however, that the interest is skewing in the favor of where the money’s at, which for him really is not his readers. That leaves people like me and you questioning whether he should really be ranked for “make money online” because Google is *very* concerned about relevance and this site begs the question whether the blog really is relevant.

Would a better solution to be creating a site that has only the tips to make money online? Of course not, because all of these advertisers would never get the exposure if he did.

Some good points in here.
You must agree that this blog is “art”, and john is a very clever “art painter”.
This blog is a excellent example on how to win money and how to make users move to one direction.
It’s almost a step by step guide on How To Create A New Religion.

That’s a good point, in terms of the lower amount of “golden posts” However, there is only so many things you can write about in terms of making money online. John posts several updates a day, so it’s natural that some of the posts will be off topic.

Also, he has the top post section, which compiles a lot of these “golden” posts for his users.

Also, I forgot to mention…even if the 4000 users who come here every month from Google for the make money online terms don’t have an interest or become repeat visitors, I’m sure he’ll make some money off them…for free. Doesn’t get any eviler than that :p
